Monument Yangmen

Chapter 87

The examination held by the state government that Yang Yansi participated in this time is also called Chunwei.The provincial examination held by the Ministry of Rites is only held in autumn, and it is also called Qiuwei.

In other words, he still has more than half a year to think about his marriage.

So he still has a lot of time to think slowly, and don't rush to make a decision.

The most important thing right now is to solve the test.

Lifting the curtain of the carriage, looking at the scene outside the door, Yang Yansi was a little dazed.

It is not an exaggeration to describe the gate of the Kaifeng Mansion North Hospital as a bustling traffic.

Students of all colors, accompanied by their families, are preparing to enter.

Most of the students are divided into two areas. The students in one area are all from wealthy families, and their clothes and accessories all show their nobility.

The parents who sent them to rush for the exam were also dressed in gorgeous clothes, and they kept keeping warm by their side.

The students in the other area seemed to be dressed poorly, with coarse linen clothes and striped hair, standing a little cautiously in the crowd.Most of their parents are also honest farmers in the countryside, with big rough hands resting on the children's shoulders, constantly urging them.

In the middle of the two areas, there is another area, which is actually full of women, each with a curtain, and under the service of the maids, Yingying stands there, as if waiting for someone.

Yang Yansi jumped out of the carriage, put his bags on his back, and said to She Saihua: "Mother, you go back! You have already arrived at the gate of Kaifeng Mansion, and the child will go in by himself."

She Saihua smiled, "Mother will go back later, it doesn't matter, after you go in, mother will go back."

Yang Yanping chimed in, "Mother, just listen to Seventh Brother and go back! I'll wait here for you."

She Saihua glared at the talkative Yang Yanping.

The mother and son were greeting each other when a woman in a pink gauze dress and a curtain came over.

The woman in the pink gauze dress bowed down, "But Mr. Yang Qi is in person?"

The mother and son were taken aback for a moment, Yang Yansi bowed his hands to the woman in the pink gauze dress, "I am Yang Yansi."

The woman in pink bowed down again.

"Nunu has met Young Master Yang Qi."

Yang Yansi cupped his fists and said, "Miss, you're welcome."

The woman in pink said softly: "Mr. Yang Qi is going to take the exam today, and all the sisters are here to send him off. I wish Mr. Yang Qi the best on the list."

The woman in pink fell to the ground and saluted Yang Yansi again.

"I will give you a piece of music, I hope Young Master Yang Qi will not dislike it..."

Before Yang Yansi refused, the women in the field slowly got together.

The long sleeves fluttered, and the lead girl in pink opened her mouth lightly.

"Dongfeng Yefang... Flowers... Thousands... Trees..."

Like Sanskrit singing, speaking eloquently, the voice is graceful and clear.

All the girls sang in unison, the scene was very spectacular, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

Yang Yansi was a little overwhelmed, he had never experienced such a scene, so he could only look at it stupidly.

She Saihua said to Yang Yanping, who was also dumbfounded, with a complex expression: "Stinky boy, you are not very old, but you are full of flair..."

Yang Yanping pouted, "It's not just romantic..."

In a corner outside the North Courtyard of Kaifeng Mansion, a man and a woman were sitting on the carriage. The man was looking at the spectacular scene outside, his fists clenched tightly.

"When will I be treated like this?"

The woman glanced at him, and said lightly: "You will never be able to do this in your life. In this world, he is the only one who will be treated like this."

The man said unwillingly: "Sooner or later, I will be treated like this...By the way, sister, aren't you here to send for the exam? Why don't you go."

The woman said indifferently: "There is no need to go there, just watching him here is enough."

The man asked, "Sister, do you like Brother Qilang?"

The woman was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly.

The man said happily, "Then have you told Dad?"

Mentioning this woman, I was stunned, "I told my father, and my father said that if Yang Yansi can pass the Jinshi examination, he will agree to our marriage."

"Does Qilang know?"

The woman shook her head.

On the other side of the North Courtyard of Kaifeng Mansion, a tall horse blocked in front of a carriage. The girl on the horseback and the girl in the carriage looked at the singing and dancing women, frowned and cursed in unison.

"Trouble hooves!"

After cursing, the girl in the carriage shouted to the girl on the horseback: "Huyan Chijin, get out of the way, I'm going to send Yang Qi to the exam."

"Bah!" Huyan Chijin spat while sitting on the horseback, and shouted: "You are still a princess, so you don't know how to be reserved. Besides, I, Huyan Chijin, can only send Brother Qilang for the exam."

The two girls scolded each other and stood deadlocked in the corner.

In front of the gate of the North Courtyard of Kaifeng Mansion, Yang Yansi stared at the girls singing and dancing, and he found a familiar figure among the girls.

The woman was wearing a green shirt, her eyes were fixed on him, and she never left.

Yang Yansi guessed the identity of this woman, but he didn't say anything.

"Looking for him thousands of times in the crowd... suddenly looking back... that person is... in a dimly lit place..."

After a dance, all the girls bow down together.

Yang Yansi bowed his body to salute, and said with emotion: "How can I be so virtuous that I can get the love of all of you..."

The woman in pink moved forward slightly, and said with a smile: "Young Master Yang Qi is serious. It is the greatest wish of all the sisters to sing and dance for you."

The woman in pink took a purse from the servant girl. The purse was embroidered with small flowers in various colors, which was really pretty.

"This is a wish from all the sisters, and I hope Young Master Yang Qi will accept it."

Yang Yansi took the purse and said: "You girls' love, I am ashamed to accept it..."

The woman in pink smiled slightly and said, "If you feel ashamed, my lord, you should visit our sisters more often."

"Si knows."

"Don't go!"

"Don't go!"

Two shouts came from Yang Yansi's left and right sides, and then Huyan Chijin and Princess Qingyu walked over aggressively.

Yang Yansi shook his head and smiled, and saluted: "Sister Chijin...Princess Qingyu...be polite."

Huyan Chijin and Princess Qingyu stared at the women in Huajie and Liuxiang with the same hatred.

"Take the exam well. I will marry you when you come out."

Huyan Chijin's personality is still as hot as ever, and such words can be said in public.

Princess Qingyu is not as careless as Huyan Chijin, she is more reserved, after all, she has to take into account the face of the royal family.

"Seventh brother, the exam is coming, you have to prepare for it carefully. If you like to watch singing and dancing, there are many singers and actresses in my house, and they are all trained by the palace. They are far better than them... "

Yang Yansi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and saluted slightly: "Thank you for your kindness."

Yang Yanping, who was watching from the side, pouted and enviously said: "Seventh brother is not only romantic, but also has good luck!"

(PS: You may think that these women are too bold. Women in ancient times should follow the three rules and four virtues. In fact, this kind of statement is wrong. Before Cheng Zhu Neo Confucianism appeared, the ancient The controls on women's speech and behavior are still very loose, and it is normal to confess on the street. After the emergence of Cheng Zhu Neo Confucianism, it was the place where women's nightmares began, and only then did they have strict and extreme ethics for them to abide by. In addition, don’t think it’s an exaggeration for the women in Liuxiang, Huajie to send for the exam. In the early Northern Song Dynasty, when Liu Yong, the head of the super romantic team, died, the scene was even more exaggerated than the ten-mile long pavilion.)
